This movie and its main character are very aware of Robinson Crusoe and his story. While the viewer is more aware from the beginning, the character gets it quite quickly too. Which may have to do with some relics and of course the fact he knows the story too.

So a few things will be familiar I reckon - but instead of a guy our protagonist will get a woman. Which will bring a whole different dynamic to the mix - yes he wants to get laid and yes there is not much clothing involved with her attire. Having said all that, the movie is more on the fun side of things and does not emphasize on any erotic dreams too much. It may also have stereotypes that you do not approve of ... take it with a grain of salt.

Robi and his wife reside in a big industrial city. Just your average couple who are caught up in a fast paced, gadget saturated life. They indulge themselves in an artificial food as they enjoy their technology oriented world. However,Robi's life turns upside down as they decide to go on a cruise for some long overdue vacation time. Unfortunately, when the cruise ship gets caught up in a storm, Robi finds himself in a modern day(by modern I mean 1976)Robinson Crusoe story.

I saw this movie for the first time, back when I was 9 years old. Recently, I managed to stumble on it in a video shop. After all these years, this movie still can stand as one of the funniest that I have ever seen. Very enjoyable, satisfying comedy. If you manage to get your hands on a copy, check it out. All around a good comedy movie.

Of all Paolo Villaggio characters - Robbi - is most well-balanced - to my opinion. It is not as "overly-pathetic" as Fantozzi. Au contre... In fact "Il Signor Robinson" as a movie - contains some very well written characters. Simple - but not dumb. Some scenes - I think - are exotic, unique and elegant from comical perspective. For example - I've never seen anything - like a scene - with crushed Coke can washed ashore - and the tribal chief. Actually - I was wondering - did Coca-Cola company know about it at all? I believe it was a major "Burn!" All and all that piece of comedy is timeless. I will always recommend this one to comedy fans worldwide.

Parody of the famous novel Robinson Crouse in which Paolo Villaggio shows us a castaway grappling with the challenge of survival. I confess that I did not love this movie very much, which does not seem very good to me, definitely below the standards of the actor.
